This book begins with an overall explanation of information security- physical security. It then goes on to detail why approaching these two different types of security in one way (called convergence) is so critical.

Physical and Logical Security Convergence then details enterprise security management as it relates to incident detection and incident management. This is followed by detailed examples of implementation- taking the reader through cases addressing various physical security technologies.



These technologies are- and include:

• Video Surveillance
• Heating- Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC)
• Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)
• Access Controls
• Biometrics
• And much- much more.........

The topic of convergence is picking up momentum every day with every new computer exploit- announcement of a malicious insider- or issues related to terrorists- organised crime- and nation-state threats.

Key Features & Benefits:
